Great photo's Kim! Did you drive all the way from Illinois to Virginia to visit Susan? I think I remember that Susan flew to Illinois to visit you recently too, didn't she? I just think it would be so much fun if it were possible for a bunch of us to get together and meet and chat and play in the dirt together!

Your plants look wonderful and I know you will love it once you get them all on that nice shelf! I have a couple of smaller stands that look like yours, that I bought at Wal-Mart and hung lights on. It just seems like you buy one and before long you are needing another and another! You might end up with wall to wall plant stands! LOL.

Well, you be careful shoveling all that snow! I've never had to shovel snow in my life but I know what it's like to shovel piles of mulch and heavy sand, so I know shoveling heavy wet snow must be hard work!

LOL, I see now that you have your lights up and all your plants on the stand! Great job! It looks good and Wow, look at all those babies! You will have so much fun watching them grow and mature ... and oh how exciting it will be to get that first bloom!

Kim,

Congratulations on your stand!
Isn't it such a fantastic feeling when you turn that stand on for the first time and all that white light radiates around? I will never forget the feeling I had the first time I turned mine on :)
I am SO happy for you and your plants all look happy and healthy.
What a great visit you must have had.
It really would be so neat to meet everyone in person Lin. I can't imagine how much fun that would be.

Looks wonderful Kim :) Happy growing!!

Thanks Lin and Kim and Lin I do almost have wall to wall stands. I did drive to Susan than I found out 60 miles away in Siler City North Carolina I had realtives that I had never met and I found them it was so exciting I started to cry . than I wanted to find Fenton Glass company again it was out of the way but I did fine it 3 hours later and had to buy a few thing. The reason I dicided to go to NC was my Mom went there 40 years ago and I had hope that I traveled the same route. I was so happy and I dicided to go buy myself because noone else wood take me I had such a great time. I am thinging about my next trip next year. Going the other way to San Antonio Tex. I have a cousin there and I haven't see her in quite a few years.
But I love all my plants the driveway will take a few day so much Ice on it so I will just take my time when I get all my seeds read I will send pictures in the seed form
Thanks alot

Thanks for sharing photos from your visit together.. your new plant stand looks great, too, and it'll be so cool to have it and all the plants you're propagating now as a reminder of the time you spent together.

I wish Danville were closer to Frederick... we could've had a little AV forum RU! :-)
